Social network graph using a javascript library

Question

I intend to draw a directed graph (node-oriented). The nodes in the graph are dynamically generated. I am wondering if there's any good js library out there that solves my problem. Edges and weights need to be custom configured.

Thanks, Deepak.

Solution 1

The JavaScript InfoVis Toolkit provides graph view that can be dynamically generated and updated using AJAX etc. It provides a number of views that are customizable.

Solution 2

From my experience D3.js is most flexible

d3js.org

also there is new sigmajs libaray

Solution 3

Have you looked into the RaphaelJS library?

Check out the awesome demos on the site. It's cross-browser, because it uses VML in IE and SVG in other browsers.

Solution 4

Commercially licensed - KeyLines would do the job - also cross-browser, both old IE & newer browsers supported (incl iPads). Disclaimer: I help to develop it ;-)
